"Clandestine Classics is making all the implied sex in such classics as Jane Eyre, Pride & Prejudice and, yes, Sherlock Holmes explicit."
1) really?
2) That is not, actually, what 50 Shades of Grey did.
3) Can we stop talking about that book, please? (I know, I know...)
I'm mostly annoyed that it's not even a new idea. Someone already published a "Wild and Wanton" version of Pride and Prejudice, with the new bits in a different font. It was awful, the few pages I managed to read in the bookstore before rage won and I had to put it down. go to Amazon and search inside the book. Seriously. It's awful.
